So I got this piece of junk mail today from AWAI trying to sell me an at-home course for catalog copywriting. I took their six figure income copywriting course (yes, there is a sucker born every minute....PT Barnum was right) and while I did get some good writing tips out if it, I swear I have gotten more out of blogging here and reading other posts than I did with that course.

So...they want me to take this new catalog copy course for $399. Not gonna happen. The last course I took promised so many wonderful things in their direct mail piece only to continue sending me more and more "promotions" for when I was done with the first course.....you know, "Oh, now you can go on to the Master's Course for the arm and leg you have left if you really want us to divulge our contacts and copywriting secrets...". Sad thing is, when I looked these guys up I couldn't find a single scam complaint against them. But I digress...
